LETTER: Newspaper should stop reporting on suicides

Rarely have I felt it necessary to write you [the Peninsula Daily News].

My heart aches that each of these “real people” has a sad story to tell.

This does not come lightly for them.

The horrible details and the name and situation for a 15-year-old is especially a betrayal to her and her family.

That would be unless the parents have asked for this information to be on the front page.

A child of that age must have been really hurting.

Our town is full of hurting kids, and we as a community should try to help instead of complaining that there are people in our midst who do not fit our standards.

We need to be part of the solution.
